Central Texas MFSA & Rio Texas MFSA Hold Joint Meeting
Saturday May 22, members of the Central Texas MFSA and Rio Texas MFSA met together for a joint picnic, the first in-person gathering since the pandemic. Originally planned as an outdoors picnic, the weather forced the groups inside. The weather, however, did not bring down the nearly 30 members who celebrated seeing folks for the first time in the past year. The gathering took place at a significant location for both Annual Conferences, the Getsemani Center, formerly the Rio Grande Conference Church and now a First UMC Community Ministry Center. Members heard a report on the Texas Legislature that was in the final days of the session and were provided suggested contacts to reach out to and encourage in support or opposition of many pending bills.
